Bio-expertise in Finland

There are examples of profitable bio-business in products that are not based on Finland's earlier strengths.

These include measurement techniques and diagnostic methods in the field of molecular biology, which have seen rapid advances.

The markets for research reagents are considerable, and the development of these kinds of research services and research materials would be ideally suited for Finland.

There remains bottlenecks in commercialization. For instance, there is no significant pharmaceuticals industry in our country that could provide support for commercialization or training of experts in this field.

The Swede's are much better off in this respect.
